It’s a big cliche and doesn’t work anywhere else…

But in Hawaii you can literally do anything you want on the road, as long as you throw up a shaka after.

I mean, pullups and running are very different…

Running you just need anything warm, nothing else matters. Pullups (outside in the winter?) you can’t sacrifice grip and should go with something like Mechanix gloves. Just enough to get a layer between you and the bar.

So really, the solution is two items.

If you really want one single solution, military surplus FROG gloves.

They won’t be as warm as mittens when running, but you’ll be able to easily get your sleeves over them to seal up and trap air. And they’re designed to deal with wet/cold as well as the fire resistance they’re named after so outdoor cold pullups should be fine.

But still won’t have the straight grip as Mechanix gloves, or the warmth of bulky gloves/mittens that would be useless for pullups.

Everyone’s different.

The Humane Society is a great place to start, but you can also just be cognizant of your surroundings and put effort into helping people when they seem to need it. You don’t need to change anything else, just “be a helper”.

The vast majority of people are wired to get a dopamine boost from helping others.

Doesn’t matter how you do it, can be as inconsequential as noob sitting in a video game, or real world productive like volunteering at a soup kitchen.

But it’ll help.

Sony charges a monthly fee to play online…

It’s really getting to the point Gabe needs to cash out and turn Steam into a non-profit…

I trust him while he’s alive, but some day he’ll die, and who knows what will happen to Steam.

We could wake up one morning and find out there’s a $10 monthly fee to access Steam’s “services” including every game you ever purchased.

We can’t just cost on the hopes nothing changes forever.

Ease of use, manages updates and just keeps it all together.

My first PC games you had to exit windows and load the game thru DOS, it meant we learned how computers actually worked, but it was a hassle.

There’s two types:

1. Mental addiction

2. Physical addiction

For #2 it’s pretty clear cut: they get the shakes between 12-48 hrs without drinking

For #1 there’s a lot of grey area, but basically someone who becomes agitated when they can’t drink on their normal schedule or won’t do certain activities if they can’t also drink.

Things in atmosphere can color the light, but most likely they’re thinking about incandescent lighting on TV and at night.

The point the fediverse is at right now would be refered to as the “golden age” if the fediverse ever takes off.

That doesn’t mean it will take off, and that doesn’t mean it would be better or worse if it takes off later.

Enjoy it for what it is, but if you want to recruit people to it…

Your time would be best doing that, and this is the worst place to do it.

is there any way if knowing if we have bots on lemmy or not? Is it just vibes based?

Man…

In a weird way, yeah, but only because the process of critical thinking is now being described as “vibes”…

Like, even when people can tell at a glance, it’s still critical thinking, it’s just been done so much that your brain autopilots it for you.

Im of course referring to undercover bots pushing agendas

That costs a non zero amount of money, and there isn’t a big enough audience here to justify it.

What I have seen, is people who will copy/paste a chatbot, but because they’re having to use actual credits, if you keep them going a couple comments the actual human will reply.

But those are very few, and doing personal agendas. Not a shadowy organization spinning a narrative. The ones doing it here, have just been banned from every where else for doing it already

Clémence Guetté, Vice President of France’s National Assembly, submitted a parliamentary resolution calling for France to withdraw from NATO’s integrated command structure, citing President Trump’s threats to seize Greenland from NATO ally Denmark as evidence the US-led alliance threatens world peace.

So one politician from France submitted a resolution in the French government to do it.

And you…

You honestly and legitimately think that is the same thing as:

I saw France had proposed an initiative to withdraw because of the US’ shenanigans

Like, you didn’t just go and try to find a source but didn’t read it. You just don’t understand how what that says and what you said are vastly different things?

I saw France had proposed an initiative to withdraw because of the US’ shenanigans…

Where?

France is leading NATO air and ground troops this year, and I didn’t see anything about France leaving NATO when I just checked.

How could you think this would be a better way to find out than just asking her what she meant?

Also, weird as fuck to be throwing yourself in drama like that, but as least your friend will find out your super messy if they haven’t. If they already knew, this is what they signed up for anyways

I mean, there’s a shit ton of variables…

You need to look specifically for people going from your current country, and the destination will change a lot of things.

Sometimes it’s very easy, other impossibly difficult.

I’ll admit that I don’t really know how that works, or how it’s enforced, or whatever

They almost always mean “economic sanctions”.

Cutting them off from “western banking”…

Essentially not letting them buy/sell any stocks in the western market.

Which unfortunately is headquartered in NYC, explaining why it’s the NY Stock Exchange.

There are others, Europe has 5 worth over a trillion each and some others, Asia has the NICA index. But the American NYSE is worth over 25 trillion. It’s the big one.

But trump personally would be very hard to sanction in other markets, because he’s so shady banking institutions usually won’t deal with him. It’s why he pivoted to crypto.

He does have some money in NYSE, but that’s overseen by the SEC, and trump won’t sanction himself.

Ironically what we’d see is tarrifs. America doesn’t make shit, and can’t afford to buy a lot of stuff now. So other big buyers can pressure the “producer countries” into marking up anything that goes in/out of America.

His leadership position was voted on before the DNC chair.

So his threats to cut off funding to the state of any Dems that wouldn’t back him still had some teeth.

It doesn’t now, mainly because the DNC immediately jumped into the largest twin esture into state parties, ever.

He’s been a lame duck all but maybe a month of this senate leadership term, and will almost certainly lose it next year.

If he doesn’t, it’s a bad sign.

What are you talking about?

There’s no American troops there now.

If you’re arguing there’s going to be a response or separate action in the future, yes…

That’s how time works, there’s always something happen, obviously something will happen next

When you get the time it’s worth reading up on, super interesting and I’m surprised there hasn’t been a big movie about it despite America being the bad guys.

That was an invasion, not a kidnapping.

The first hint is the situation was called “invasion of Panama”
